System limits

Even with PDC, final responsibility for

estimating the distance between the

vehicle and any obstructions always

remains with the driver. Even when sensors

are involved, there is a blind spot in which

objects cannot be detected. The system is

also subject to the physical limits that apply

to all forms of ultrasonic measurement,

such as those encountered with thin and

wedge-shaped objects, etc. Low objects

already displayed, e.g. a curb, can also dis-

appear from the detection area of the sen-

sors again before a continuous tone

sounds.

Loud noises from outside and inside your

vehicle may prevent you from hearing the

PDC signal tone.<

Do not apply high pressure spray to

the sensors for a prolonged period of

time. Keep the spray at least 4 in/10 cm

away from the sensors.<

Driving stability control

systems

Your BMW is equipped with an extended

array of systems designed to enhance and

maintain vehicle stability under extreme

conditions. The following section describes

these functions based on ABS and DSC.

ABS Antilock Brake System

ABS enhances active safety by preventing

the wheels from locking under braking.

ABS is operational every time you start the

engine. ABS includes the functions CBC

Cornering Brake Control and EBV Elec-

tronic brake-force distribution.

CBC Cornering Brake Control

It provides further enhancements in vehicle

stability and steering response during lane

changes and cornering at high rates of lat-

eral acceleration.

EBV Electronic brake-force

distribution

EBV controls the brake system's applica-

tion pressure at the rear wheels to ensure

stable deceleration.
